Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I repaint my house exterior?
Most homes need repainting every 7-10 years, depending on paint quality, climate exposure, and surface material. Homes with LP SmartSide or vinyl siding may need less frequent painting.
Preparation Is 80% of a Lasting Paint Job
Exterior paint in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Colorado faces brutal UV, sub-zero winters, and constant moisture cycling — and paint fails at the prep, not the topcoat. That's why our crews pressure-wash, scrape and sand failing paint, repair or replace rotted wood, spot-prime bare surfaces, and caulk every gap before the first finish coat goes on. We use premium acrylic exterior systems chosen for your surface — wood lap, LP SmartSide, fiber cement, stucco, or previously painted brick — and apply them at the manufacturer's specified film thickness in appropriate weather windows.
Inside, we handle walls, ceilings, trim, doors, and cabinet refinishing with careful masking, floor protection, and low-VOC products so your home stays livable during the project. We also stain and seal wood decks, fences, and pergolas — and if your deck boards are past saving, our deck team can talk you through composite replacement instead.
Painting pairs well with siding repair and window replacement, since trim carpentry overlaps across all three. We paint homes across the Twin Cities metro, western Wisconsin, Chicagoland, and the Denver metro — see all service areas or request a free color consultation.
